I just made it the other day because my wife doesn't want to use my text-based spreadsheet. pic related. I have it set up where she could use google docs if she'd like, and I'm going to eventually put something in the front to denote whether I bought it or not already.

If anyone was wondering (I know no one was). Honestly, I'm curious about how anyone else keeps their stuff. I've been doing this kind of thing for awhile, but I'm not sure if it is as efficient. I had the idea of making a small script that creates tables and running them on my server, since people are always asking about presents and shit.

I use an excel file. I have put all lit's top 100 year end charts as well as r/truelit's top 100, sorted the books by how good they are based in their placement on each list, and it gives me the percentage of how many of them I have read
Currently slightly above 60%
I considered adding a column for my ratings but I'm not that autistic

I didn't take notes for that one because it's way too light kek
The writing's actually not too terrible though. It does what it wants to do. It's actually quite comfy for listening. The narrator isn't that great though. I've heard better audiobooks.

I read books and don't have a GoodReads
I watch movies and I don't have a Letterbox.
I have friends and I don't have Facebook.
I have opinions and I don't have Twitter.

Social media doesn't enhance these things, it devalues them. If I figure out that every book you read, every movie you watch, every friend you have and every opinion you hold has been carefully cultivated to maintain some outwardly projected self-image that doesn't necessarily track to what's authentic or true, then I'm going to just walk away from you; possibly while you're in the middle of a sentence.

Not everyone is an epic schizo. I like to mix up my reading and audiobooks are fine for books I don't want to waste my time with undivided attention by actually reading them on paper. Nonetheless I'll be glad once I'm through my list of popular shit.
But yeah, from the popular stuff I've already finished, Twilight is, surprisingly, one of the better books (if you ignore the obvious and overbearing female thirst).

I have read 4 books this year. Started on 4 others, but stopped halfway through all of them. Because of my Down's syndrome, I read slowly and push myself to try to interpret the material as thoroughly as possible. While reading I also take the shit out my diaper and paint a beard on my face to increase my sexual market value. Therefore, reading becomes very time consuming for me, and for that reason I always revert to stereotypical and repetitive behaviors instead
